The Starbucks Christmas cups are back, which means it is time for an actual Seinfeld-style episode of the Toronto Real Estate Podcast. No script. No strict agenda. Just Ralph Fox and the Fox Marin crew talking about everything and “nothing” in Toronto real estate in late 2025.In this roundtable, Ralph is joined by Ian Busher, Jerome Werniuk, Jessica Spillas and Reuben Labovitz for a candid, fast-moving conversation that runs from corner store bylaws and NIMBY Facebook groups to the pre-construction crash, purpose-built rentals, The One at Yonge and Bloor, and the very real psychology of buyers and sellers in a grinding market.They unpack why corner cafés and tuck shops might quietly transform Toronto neighbourhoods, how pre-construction pricing got so far out of line with resale, why taxes and development charges matter more than people realize, and how purpose-built rental is reshaping the city’s future. The team also dives into The One saga, what Tridel’s takeover signals for ultra-luxury, and why good agents are having the most challenging and most honest pricing conversations of their careers.
